diced cucumber

Every month or two a group of moms get together and have a Mom’s Who Need Wine Evening. We do our best to gather monthly, rotating houses, as our schedules allow. The core group have been friends since all our kids were in kindergarten (they are entering grade 7 Fall 2017). New friends and family have joined in from time to time, and each time we try to change it up with either a wine or food theme.

Our wine theme for this evenings gathering was California, so I went with a healthy, bite sized feta & lentil salad. I’ve been to California many times, as my late Uncle used to live in San Diego, and it holds a special place in my heart. I also prepared Pico De Gallo & Guacamole to represent all the incredible Mexican food I’ve tasted in Southern California and Tijuana.

Feta & Lentil Salad without almonds or arugula

All the ladies loved this Feta & Lentil Salad, so here it is. It’s from Canadian Living, but I made a few tweaks and served it in shot glasses, which were super cute! The next time I made it I added in fresh arugula, it was so good I added it into the recipe.
